    Chapter 161


    “I just want to be safe. What if?”


    “There is no ‘what if’. Only one woman in this world can conceive my child,” retorted Cedrick curtly, his


    gaze darker than ink. The sunlight was refracted by the windowpanes and onto his body as though


    casting a faint halo on him.


    She could not see through him. She could not understand.


    Catelyn’s fists that rested on her knees retracted as she tugged lightly at her pant legs. Was Cedrick


    talking about Maia?


    His engagement with Maia was not supposed to be called off. Was she truly a homewrecker?


    Catelyn’sshes quivered at this, and she fell silent.


    Catelyn was dropped off at the entrance of Ocean Park Residence.


    She was supposed to get some groceries along the way home, but she was so exhausted that all she


    wanted was to lie on the bed.


    As she was nearing her apartment, the guard greeted her.


    Catelyn had a good rtionship with most of her neighbors, and she would, at times, buy fruits and


    share with the guards.


    “Ah, you’re back, Miss rk! A man has been waiting for you for some time now.”


    “A man?” Catelyn was surprised to hear that.


    “Yes.” The guard nodded and briefly told the height of the man as he spoke, “He resembled Miles, so I


    didn’t stop him and allowed him to wait inside. He should still be waiting below your apartment.”

    The man resembled Miles? It was Jamie, no doubt.


    “Alright. Thanks, Chad.”


    “No problem! It’s my pleasure.” Catelyn thus made her way to her apartment, even though she was dead


    tired. True enough, she saw Jamie sitting on the bench by the swimming pool. Dressed in his suit, he


    looked worn-out as though he had a very terrible day. Catelyn recalled seeing him and Loue in his car


    earlier, and she smiled sarcastically. This man came to see her right after sending Loue back! He was


    pure trouble. What did Loue see in him, anyway?


    The pale-faced Jamie felt a pair of eyes staring at him and turned, noticing it was Catelyn. He

    stood up and slowly walked toward her, visibly lethargic and eyes bloodshot. “Where did you gost


    night?” he asked. Catelyn ignored him and entered her password, about to enter her apartment. “I’m


    asking you a question, Catelyn, answer me!” Jamie’srge palm mmed t on the password keypad,


    blocking her vision. Catelyn was forced to look him in the eyes, and Jamie’s eyes were lit with jealousy. It


    was as though he just caught Catelyn with someone. He bumped into Lori at the hospitalst night after


    smashing his phone.


    It was then he was told that a few men had assaulted Queenie and, worse still, was even broadcasted to


    the whole hall. Numerous media, reporters, and guests recorded the scene. The clip went viral! Catelyn,


    however, had no clue what Queenie experienced.


    She looked at Jamie quietly. Other than irony, she felt disappointed.


    The Jamie she once knew was opportunistic but was still ethically sensible.


    At this moment, a few yearster, he had turned into a stranger that she no longer knew. “No matter who


    I was with, I won’t entertain you.”
